This chic, rural bolthole offers guests the best of both worlds. The restful, secluded setting is perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring, yet the cottage is just a 7 minute drive to Kelso which offers an excellent range of independent shops, pubs and restaurants and a 12 minute drive to St Boswells for the Buccleuch Arms bistro and the acclaimed Main Street Trading bookshop, deli and coffee shop. Inside the cottage is presented in a contemporary, country style with solid oak floors, traditional sash and case windows and earthy Farrow and Ball tones with vibrant splashes of colour from bespoke linen curtains, Fired Earth tiles and eye-catching original artwork.
The open plan living area features a sumptuous sofa and armchair, chic, contemporary dining table and well-equipped solid wood kitchen. There’s a state-of-the-art Charnwood log burner for cosying up in the winter, whilst floor to ceiling French doors fold back for outside living during the warmer months.
The bedroom is decorated in calm neutral tones with a luxurious Feather and Black bed to aid a good night’s sleep and the sleek, contemporary bathroom includes a bath with rainforest shower head over whilst the new heating system guarantees oodles of hot water.
